In addition to the Tingsong Pavilion on the platform, there is also an ancient well. Because the wellhead is higher than the ridge of the street bungalow, it is called the well on the house. The water is sweet and available all year round.

The stone railing at the entrance of the well is simple and ancient, with 23 water-carrying rope ditches. The stone of the rope ditch is as bright as jade. The words "Made by Xiahou Sheng, Sima of the Palace in the Fourth Year of Jin Taishi" are engraved on the railings for soldiers to quench their thirst.
